Ouotina from many docu ments which it had seized, the committee . described in detail activities which it attributed to the Transocean News Service, German organization (not con-n-tri with anv United States news service); the German li brary of information of New Vork; the German railroads in formation office of New York, and the American Feuowsnip forum. Industrial Plan The report also said that the committee had seized in files of the Chemical Marketing com pany In New York a plan entitled 'The Organization of GermaA Industry in America After the War." This organization, the commit tee said, was "typically charac teristic of the thoroughness of the German mind and its ability to foresee in great detail future de velopments. "The plan lacks nothing in Its effectiveness or in detail for the contemplated organization, not merely of industry and trade, but also proposals to combine these spheres of activity with a great banking Institute to under write and support the financing of German industry, and trade activities," the report said. "The plan goes still further In that it also contemplates through cultural academic as sociations and circles the cooper ation of the professional and academic world banded together In typical front organizations'," , The report asserted that the. plan showed a 'very definite link" with German industrial life by providing that activities in this country should be directed from a bureau to be established In the German ministry in Ber lin.

NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 21 UP) Success in some form for a measure that would drive rack eteers out of its labor unions was forecast today by a key man in the American Federation of Labor. But while the rest of the AFL convention delegates observed Thanksgiving day, representa tives of the International Ladies'. Garment Workers, which has 100,000 members in the New York area, met to consider de mands for a wage hike and the possibility of a strike. New Contract David Dubinsky, one of the authors of the anti-racketeering measure and president of the garment workers, said: "Our ILGW general executive board, which meets every three months, was called into session today to work out a contract for the one expiring February 1. "We'll want to preserve our present 35-hour week and may ask for higher wages. Because of these and other demands we will also consider the possibility of a strike." Raps Gangsterism "I don't see how the conven tion can fall to act favorably on the anti-racketeering resolu tion," said an official who is a member of the AFL executive . council and the resolutions com mittee. The executive council in Its annual report condemned gang . sterlsm within unions but ac knowledged that the general body of the AFL lacked consti tutional authority to deal with the problems as it arose in in dividual unions. The resolution, introduced by Dubinsky and other members of his ILGW, called upon the con vention to vote the AFL consti tutional authority to smash rack eteering within a union.

' ' President at Home President Roosevelt, like mil lions of other citizens, fell in with the mellowed custom of a family holiday church services, a quiet home dinner, and hours of friendly talk. Mr. and Mrs. Roosevelt visited at Hyde Park, N. Y., with the president's moth er, Mrs. Sara Delano Roosevelt Churches held special Thanks giving services for communi cants seeking spiritual reassur ance in a world at war. The president's proclamation had called on Americans to "give thanks for our preservation" in a year which saw "calamity and sorrow" fall upon other nations. War News Banned The Atlanta Constitution swept all war news from its front page and devoted the en tire space to accounts of holiday festivities and a picture of three small girls kneeling in church services "confident of showers of blessings, fearing no shower of bombs." Although thanks for peace and freedom were the keynotes of the day, they came from a nation looking to its defenses as the . QUESTION "Will 'RPM eliminate starter 'groan' thia winter?". ANSWER Yea!

The prime minister expressed hope that Britain would be able to give from her resources, "al ways heavily strained," a "help ful measure of assistance to the Greeks" and that "we shall be able to discharge our responsi bility to Egypt in defending Its soil and guarding the vital artery of the Suez canal." "Even if the whole of the homes all over the country are levelled," Churchill said,- "we shall still be found all standing together and we shall build them up again after the fight ing is Qvcr." He urged the house of com- mnm not to lose siflht of its democratic duty of "giving guidance to the nauon ana, u necessary, correction to the ex ecutive."
